A Swiss makeup artist (Martena Duss)and an Austrian fashion designer(Sissi Holleis), came to the world fashion capital expecting to be wowed by Gallic savoir faire. Instead, they found a city in which the relationship between ordinary people and the hallowed workshops of the great couturiers had broken down to the extent that – sacre bleu!
– their French friends were asking to borrow their sewing machines So they decided to open a friendly workshop in a quiet street near the trendy bars and boutiques of the Canal Saint Martin, where budding seamstresses and enthusiastic amateurs could practise their art while sipping an espresso or munching on Martena’s herb-laden Finnish cake. The girls are also offering sewing courses and demonstrations from designers making it quite an attractive destination for budding fashion designers and fashionistas. “We want to stimulate people to have a personal relationship again with their clothes,” says Duss.
